Supporting the Community

From the outset and during construction The Landings has made it a priority to employ local contractors and local labour which has involved upwards of 400 people. And if a specific trade needed to be sourced off shore, local labour was paired with the off shore tradesperson to maximise the local training contribution.

The Landings has also pledged substantial financial support to a local charity 'Grow Well' which provides encouragement, guidance, support and training to youths in the local district.

The Grow Well volunteer based charity was established 12 years ago when it emerged that many of the social problems in the area were attributed to an increasing number of 'youth at risk' due to the inadequate social support services. Their programmes include, amongst others; library services, computer training, education for those unable to be at school, hospitality training and counseling workshops. They have also expanded their programmes for seniors and have developed a project which will assist those wanting to start a home-based business with the help of a small loan.

 

The Landings will support the Hospitality Programme with trainers, materials and training venues and offer job opportunities in areas such as resort hospitality, building trades, maintenance and landscaping.
